On Saturday November 09, 2008, Mrs Rose Kabuye , a senior Rwandan government official was arrested while on official duty in Germany.

Her arrest was based on a French judges indictments labelled at some top leaders of the Rwandan government.

The charges have been dismissed as politically motivated and a cover up by France for her role in the 1994 Tutsi genocide.

Mrs Kabuye is not only a role model to Rwandan women but also a hero who played a key role in stopping the Tutsi genocide.

Treating her as a criminal has caused pain to her family, friends and the entire Rwandan population.

We, Canadian-Rwandans strongly denounce her arrest.

We therefore seek your support in condemning this act and demanding her release by signing this petition.
